June 23. John Olyver—In Feb. 1532 he succeeded Dr. John Hygden in the Deanery of the Coll. founded at Oxon. by K. Hen. 8. and dying in Doctors Commons at London in the month of May, or thereabouts, an. 1552, lest much of his substance to pious uses. On the 2 of June the same year, (he being then dead) Leonard Bilson succeeded him in the Prebendship of Teynton Regis with Yalmeton in the Church of Salisbury.

John Feyter of Alls. Coll. was admitted the same day.

John Tregowell sometimes of Broadgates, afterwards Principal of Vine, hall alias Peckwaters Inn, was admitted also the same day (June 23.)—He was an eminent and learned Man in his profession, and therefore was employed to be Proctor for K. Hen. 8. in that long and costly cause of his divorce from Qu. Catherine; wherein shewing himself very diligent, was by him Knighted, and for an in∣considerable sum of money, had settled on him and his heirs for ever the rich demesne and site of the mitred Abbey of Milton alias Middleton for Benedictine Monks in Dorsetshire. He gave way to fate in the latter end of the year 1564 (7. Elizab.) and was buried in the Church there.
